    There should be an option for the customer to delete past trip history without deleting Uber account itself.

      I agree whole heartedly! Allow customers to delete ride history on their side. Uber can keep the data on their side just make it so it’s gone from customer phone!

      I think people want to delete their history because they do not want their partner to see the history– otherwise, why would anyone want to delete history?

    It should be optional to the customer/rider to retain or delete trip or address input history. This could be a privacy issue to some riders and cause them to choose a different ride service.

    OK that’s it. I’ll close my Uber account. It is not safe to have the history of my trips without an option of deleting it. Bye then.
